First check the signal by running apps/szap/femon along with vdr.
tvt1:/opt/vdr/DVB/apps/szap# ./femon
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0'

This was done @22:24. Is there any documentation other than the C source file to explain what the above values show?
Does it help to #if 0 the frequency beding stuff in dvb_frontend.c?
I've patched dvb_frontend.c like this:
static
void dvb_bend_frequency (struct dvb_frontend_data *this_fe, int recursive)
{
#if 1
this_fe->bending = 0;
#else
<original code>
#endif
}I've done two parallel recordings after the above patch. The recording was done from 17:55 - 21:00. Here's the result:
RTL was recorded without any errors.
SAT1 was recorded with these errors:
Oct 13 21:00:00 tvt1 vdr[795]: cTS2PES got 1403 TS errors, 9577 TS continuity errors
Oct 13 21:00:00 tvt1 vdr[795]: cTS2PES got 83 TS errors, 3768 TS continuity errors
